Alice Coucke, Eleonora De Leonardis and Matteo Figliuzzi (Statistical Genomics Group) and Vittore Scolari (Genomic Physics Group) co-organize the 2nd edition of the conference:
Paris Biological Physics Community Day 2014

The conference will be held at Centre Culturel Irlandais in Paris

The international meeting "Protein-Protein Interactions on the Genome Scale" is organized within the framework of the MAPPING project (Investissement d'Avenir en Bioinformatique) by A.Carbone.
The event will take place at UPMC, Jussieu Campus.
Registrations are open.

A.Carbone and E.Laine, from the Analytical Genomics Team, organize the ICS Summer School 2014 "Scientific Trends at the Interfaces - Bioinformatics and Scientific Visualization". Information on the school can be downloaded here.

The Biology of Genomes team participated to the complete design and synthesis of the first eukaryotic synthetic chromosome. We compared replication dynamics of synthetic and native chromosome III and saw few dramatic changes in spite of several autonomously replicating sequences having been deleted.

A World Community Grid Lecture Series webcast describing the work done by the team and its collaborators on protein-protein interactions, within the framework of the "Help Cure Muscular Dystrophy" project can be found here.

Hugues Richard co-organizes the 10th edition of the workshop: Statistical Methods for (Post-) Genomics Data (SMPGD). 

The Laboratory Genomics of Microorganisms will hosts the meeting at the UPMC main campus, Paris, France.
